What is a Fuzzball?

One question I hear more than any other is What's a Fuzzball??" Allow me to explain:

A Fuzzball is a 30-year-old fallen debutante who lives in Houston, TX with a bossy dog and an even bossier parrot who she SWEARS is the reincarnation of Napoleon Bonaparte.

A Fuzzball prefers animals to most people, because people can really suck sometimes.

A Fuzzball loves music, ALL music ALL of the time. If she's not listening to it, then she's singing it.

A Fuzzball has a mad love for all things British, especially their actors.

A Fuzzball is blissfully happy in a bookstore, preferably one with good music playing in the background. If you look under a Fuzzball's bed you'll usually find an entire library of books that she has dropped there after falling asleep reading.

Fuzzballs are usually incurable romantics, ridiculously optimistic, and bent on making the world a happier place.

Your typical Fuzzball will probably have a completely bizarre sense of humor. Just go with it, it will take you to funny places.

You should also be aware that Fuzzballs are giant nerds. Seriously. Science fiction, computers, the whole shebang.

Fuzzballs are also budding photographers. They love looking at the world through a lens and finding new ways to be creative.

Oh...and you can also look for a Fuzzball in one of the best movies ever made. ;)

So my friend Tracey recently broke up with her boyfriend of a year. He's a douche, we've offered to stab him, I'm not going to linger on my vengeful fantasies regarding that dickwad. Our mutual friend Brent then Twittered to Tracey that he was going to start wearing a t-shirt that said "Ask me about my hot single friend." That started a whole mess o' Twitters about Brent wanting to "pimp out" his single girl friends.

When he told me that he wanted to include me in his list I was immediately flattered, obviously. ;) However I asked him to leave me off of the list for a couple of reasons, the main being I'm not...really...single. *ooooooh* ;) Never one to pass up a compliment, though, I asked Brent to tell me what had planned on writing about me, and he sent me the following:

TheFuzzball - I can't even start typing anything about Tracy
without giggling, because she is the funniest person I've ever met in
person. If you like the TheBloggess's style of humor, you'll love
Tracy. They're different women, but TheFuzzball talks like TheBloggess
writes, and with equal speed. To me, the best part is that she's not
making jokes by slamming people - she's just genuinely funny. When I
needed photos for work, I called Tracy because I knew the photo shoot
would be a nonstop laughfest, and sure enough, Tracy's photos conveyed
how much fun we had. Oooo, there's a good idea: if you're a single
geek guy, contact her about doing a photo shoot. Say you need
headshots for your presentations. It's like a first date, only not
really a date, so you can get to know each other in a relaxed
environment. What's that, you say? I should stick to database
administration instead of date planning? Okay. On to the next hottie.

And
I would have written more, but I couldn't have you that far out of
balance with the rest of 'em! :-D You're such a doll. I swear to
God, if I was single I'd be kicking down your door - well, and then
probably begging for medical help for my freshly broken leg, because I
don't do a lot of door-kicking.

Let me say this: All girls need a friend like Brent. :D He and his darling girlfriend Erika are two more reasons why I love the Caroline Collective. I never would have met them otherwise!
